ETO'O ''OLD MAN'' GOAL CELEBRATION COUNTERS MOURINHO'S AGE MOCKERY OF HIM

About two weeks ago, it was revealed that Chelsea FC's Cameroonian soccer star, Samuel Eto'o was mocked by his Chelsea boss, Jose Mourinho about his age. This Mourinho however denied this and claimed that he was only having a private discussion.

In the weekend's Premier League game of Chelsea - Tottenham where Eto'o opened scores to their 4 - 1 victory, he took this as an opportunity to make a counter mockery of Mourinho's earlier mockery. This was after he opened the scores.

In his pose, Eto'o stood bended with left hand on his left back waist as if to support the pains on is and his right hand holding to the corner flag pole, as though it was a walking stick, this done after he had staggered towards the pole. This gave exactly the image of an old man.

This is not the first time Eto'o uses a mockery in a goal celebration. This similar incident was seen in another 4 - 0 win he had, this time with Spanish club, FC Barcelona against Real Zaragoza where he said "I danced like a monkey because they treated me like a monkey".

Mourinho on his part saw it as a great way of reducing the tension about the ''age mockery'' when he said:  "The best way to defuse the situation is to make fun, so it was a good [celebration],"

Either way, it is seen that Eto'o has this manner of getting back to mockeries. You mock Eto'o, he counters in a goal celebration!
